For the next four years, the Obamas will finally eat dinner together.
You know, unless he's busy being President.
So much this. I mean, it's a nice thought, but I don't see Michelle calling everybody to the table at six every night, you know?
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

True, but I still hope they see more of their Daddy, now he's working from home most days.

You only have four copies of each paper? That's so sad.
It's just a Barnes & Noble, so newspapers aren't a big thing for us to sell (as opposed to the grocery or convenience store). Also, we just changed our policy so that, instead of having them on display next to the magazines, we've had to put them behind the counter. Too many people were taking the paper over to the cafe, reading it all while having their cuppa joe, and leave the paper in messed-up pieces all over the table, so we couldn't sell it. Some customers complained about the move, but too damn bad.

Immediate impact: The airport closest to Obama's home, Midway, has no runway long enough to accommodate the 747 often used as Air Force One. Which means Obama is likely to land at O'Hare and head south on the Kennedy Expressway, causing annoying tie-ups. One alterative would be for him to travel by helicopter from O'Hare.
O'Hare to Hyde Park? Eep. I'd say get a new Air Force 1.

And really he doesn't need to travel anywhere if he just uses CNN's hologram technology.

The AP is calling North Carolina for Obama, and Oregon for Merkley.
Yep, MSNBC is calling NC for Obama, too. Yay!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe they could stick an aircraft carrier in Lake Michigan for him to fly to....

A Boeing 787 Dreamliner would work pretty well.
